Nine Foot Bridle / Today's Standard's / Acceptable....?
Hi there.

Just two very quick question's.

Is the Nine foot bridle, the norn, by today's standard's

Still Acceptable ?

From the top of Canopy to the bottom of the pilot chute.

We still use a a Nine Foot Bridle,.... although we've heard several differn't storries.

Like Shorter is better, Longer is Better ?

Wing Suits use Differn't ?

Any input would be greatly Appreciated ?

Thank You,

Gerald

i think it depends, some women tell me size doesnt matter, while some tell me it needs to be as long as possible...

then you got those who just make fun of how short my bridle is Sly

Most women prefer girth to length.

I understood your post, cool Smile

As far as I know, 9 feet is the norm
with wingsuit bridles being longer
and static line bridles shorter.

Re: [GreenMachine] Bridles
I have always been told its measured from the bottom pin / end of shrivel flap to to PC mounting point, NOT the canopy top-skin. I use 9ft bridle all stuff except wingsuit where I use a 10ft bridle.
